Abstract: The invention concerns a method providing a user with the use of a radiotelephone terminal for remotely controlling automatic devices supplying fee-paying services. In particular, the invention concerns a method including a call by the user to a central server, the user dialing, using his terminal, a control number, storing the control number and the identification number of the terminal in a storage unit of the central server, followed by the central server freeing the line without disconnection, verifying the identification of the device at least based on the control number, verifying the user's rights, then, in case of authorization for the user to use his terminal for remotely controlling a device. The method further includes transmission by the central server to the device a command for a specific operation, and execution of the operation by the device.

Abstract: A mobile wireless communication terminal endowed with a user interface having a display means and a navigational cross. The navigational cross has functionalities complementary to the functionalities for up/down movement. The process includes displaying with the display means a selection menu of items, manipulating the navigational cross to select an item, then alternatively displaying, in response to activation of the first of the complementary functions of the navigational cross, a first batch of possible actions on the data associated with the selected item, or displaying, in response to activation of the second of the complementary functionalities of the navigational cross, a second batch of possible actions on the data associated with the item selected.

Abstract: The process is implemented by a mobile wireless communication terminal endowed with a user interface comprising a display means and a navigational cross, said navigational cross notably having two functionalities (213, 214) complementary to the functionalities for up/down movement. The process comprises the following steps displaying with said display means a selection menu (1) of items, manipulating said navigational cross to select an item, then the following alternative steps displaying, in response to activation (11) of the first of said complementary functions (213, 214) of the navigational cross, a first batch of possible actions on the data associated with the selected item, displaying, in response to activation (12) of the second of said complementary functionalities (213, 214) of the navigational cross, a second batch of possible actions on the data associated with the item selected.

Abstract: Adaptive navigation in an interactive voice system is attained with an engine recognizing the spoken words of a user, a voice application stored in a memory of a central processing unit of a data system and managing, by a dialog manager, the dialog with the user through a voice interface as a function of the implemented recognition. The ergonomics of the dialogs with the user is dynamically managed as a function of plural indicators.
